1cup of cooking oil

Instructions
Take a bowl, mix ground chili, salt and sesame together. Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl
Heat up cooking oil in a wok over the medium heat. When the oil is hot, and turn off the heat. Let the oil cool down for 1-2 minutes. DON'T handle the hot oil immediately
Don't pour the oil to the bowl all at once. Pour 1/3 of oil to the bowl, stir and mix with the dry ingredients in the bowl. (Caution: carefully handle the hot oil.) You'll see bubbles in the bowl while pouring the hot oil, meanwhile you'll smell the aroma and hear the drizzling sound. Then pour another 1/3 of the oil, stir and mix. Repeat the same for the remaining oil. Once oil has been transferred to the bowl, add 2 tsp vinegar, and let it cool off (the bowl is very hot, don't burn your fingers)
Notes
The chili oil tastes better the next day once the taste of seasonings are combined together
Better store the chili oil in a ceramic jar with a lid
